treasurer and the taxpayer agree to a mutually satisfactory arrangement
for the payment of the delinquent taxes.

arrangement under subsection (c) with respect to that tract or item
after the due date of the payment referred to in subsection (e) and
before the date that succeeds by two (2) years the date the original
arrangement would have expired if the arrangement had not
